Shakespeare Behind Bars

Through our partnership with the Kentucky Department of Education, VSA Kentucky is proud to be sponsoring the Shakespeare Behind Bars Program for inmates ages 18 to 21 in Kentucky Corrections facilities. This program truly changes lives. In a real and lasting way, it teaches the life skills of self-discipline and self-responsibility, improves communication skills, builds character and positive self-image, and opens cognitive doorways for more positive options and choices in life. Truly a program that empowers the positive in the lives of the participants, building skills and understandings to help participants in career readiness, leading more meaningful and successful lives in the world.
